Thought could do last 8 lbs alone but alcohol !!

[DollyPop100]

I finished mj around 6 weeks ago due to a minor health issue, that I discovered was nothing to do with mj. I thought could lose last 8 lbs myself cravings been low odd binge day but mainly even keel. However since cold nights and dark days struggled and had few birthdays recently and parties where have drank. Few days after felt like completely self sabotaged and now have a stone to lose. I should have got to goal then stopped as once at goal I imagine less likely to gain as should be happy.,
think going to set a rule of max 4 drinks when go out or don’t drink as felt that causes all the issues like a switch in my brain that craves junk for days after do t know how to stop this but still enjoy a few tipples every now and then

Maybe stick to 2 drinks max then switch to lime & soda or something?

Look into how many calories each drink is..that's very off putting in itself!

I don’t understand your logic that if you’d been at goal you’d not have eaten or drunk as you did?

Suppose if at goal might feel satisfied, happier but still fighting against weight battle I always have by not getting to end point. (Goal weight?

But surely if you were still on a diet your impetus was stronger to hit goal? It’s usually when we hit target that we feel satisfied, let go, and regain.
